Refunds

Joann Jenkins, Assistant Director
Joyce Wiseman, Supervisor

2141 Blakemore Avenue
Nashville, TN. 37212
(615) 936-3572
 
What We Do: Issue refunds per insurance and patient requests on credit balance accounts; process Undistributed Revenue Report.

The refunds team works to resolve undistributed balances on the accounts. The departments work a monthly report of undistributed co-pays and forwards the report back indicating where refunds are necessary. The refunds team processes hundreds of refunds on a monthly basis to patients and insurance companies.

The refunds team also reviews hundreds of requests on a monthly basis where insurance companies are requesting refunds, yet no credit balance exists. The staff must determine if the request is appropriate and timely according to our contract. Almost half of the requests are rejected because the recovery companies hired by the insurance companies do not have access to our contract terms. In many instances the accounts just need to be corrected and payments may need to be redistributed so each line item has the appropriate payments and contractual.
